DC Design: DC Design*Sponge Soirée

On Saturday, I headed to Anthropologie Georgetown for one of two highly anticipated book signing events by Grace Bonney of Design*Sponge. I wasn't sure what to expect. A 10am book signing and "party" seemed a little out of the ordinary, but the cheery spread and pleasant company made for a terrific morning!

While Grace Bonney was busy signing books (Bless her little heart! She must have been exhausted), we chatted over lemonade and morning pastries. It was great seeing some familiar faces and making new acquaintances.

I didn't have a chance to connect with Grace or hear her words of wisdom (bummer!), but the atypical format made for a fabulous networking event. Everyone I met had a true passion for design. I look forward to keeping in touch with my new pals!
